Does Anyone Else Dread Moving?

Article excerpt

GIVE me a 30,000 word thesis to write, a 60km trek in the wilderness or a week without eating carbohydrates.

I would happily trade any of those situations over moving out of my rental and trying to find a new place to live.

The thought makes me shudder. I now have a deadline -- July 15 -- to get my life together.

My housemate and I have to be out of our rental next month, find a new place to live that also accommodates a rottweiler, inspect a new place, apply, do a bond clean on our old place, move all of our furniture and all the rest.

I have only been here for just over six months, and now I'm doing it all over again.

Yes, I know I sound like the biggest whinger in the world and yes, there are worse circumstances to be in.
